Every year, the Cannes Film Festival transforms the French Riviera into a constellation of stars, couture, and cinematic magic. But beyond the red carpet lies an even more exclusive world—the one where the most iconic venues in Cannes play host to fashion’s elite, Hollywood royalty, and the stories no paparazzi ever capture. Here’s Voir’s inside look at the power players of Cannes: where deals are made, legends gather, and style reigns supreme.
Hôtel MartinezBeachside Glamour Meets Cinematic Legacy
A symbol of timeless elegance, the Hôtel Martinez is more than just a luxury escape—it’s Cannes’ red carpet HQ. Its art deco suites, sprawling terrace, and iconic pier have played backdrop to countless celebrity interviews, fashion shoots, and brand deals. By day, it’s poolside chic. By night, it becomes a champagne-fuelled hideaway where A-listers dine behind mirrored sunglasses and whispered contracts.
Whether it’s private breakfasts with stylists or couture gliding in the golden hour, this is the hotel where fashion comes to recalibrate.
Hotel du Cap-Eden-RocThe Dream Hideaway of Icons
Perched at the edge of the Mediterranean, this palatial retreat is the Riviera’s best-kept secret. Legendary for hosting royalty, artists, and Hollywood’s most elusive faces, the Eden-Roc is where glamour comes to rest. From Dior-clad lunches to late-night swims beneath the moon, this is Cannes’ romantic fantasy come to life.
It’s the kind of place where silk robes, vintage convertibles, and seaside beauty campaigns effortlessly collide.
Chopard DinnersThe Crown Jewel of Cannes Nights
When Chopard hosts, the fashion world listens. These invite-only soirées are where heritage luxury meets modern power. Diamonds dazzle, gowns glitter, and connections are made under candlelight. It’s not just a dinner—it’s a statement.
Cover-worthy jewels, legacy moments, and glittering style evolutions all unfold in a single night’s sparkle.
Yacht AfterpartiesThe Secrets Behind the Spotlight
When the cameras go down, the real Cannes comes out to play. Think candlelit decks, flowing rosé, and curated soundtracks by DJ friends-of-friends. These floating havens are where models, moguls, and stars let go—far from the flashbulbs, deep in designer silence.
These after-hours affairs are all about mystery, indulgence, and the quiet kind of power that never needs to post.
Cannes isn’t just a film festival. It’s a playground for power, poise, and aesthetic dominance. And this year, Voir will be there to capture it—in every red-lipped toast, ocean-lit silhouette, and whispered afterparty confession.
Stay tuned for our full Cannes takeover.
